I have had my Speedmaster for over 2 years, and never been on to reserve , I always fill up after 125miles-ish, Can anyone tell me how many miles-ish before I would go onto reserve ? I have the air injection removed.
Also, have just seen a backrest for rider seat on ebay, its a home made affair, with a bought pad, But is for an America. Anyone know where I could get one for the speedmaster single seat ? Thanks in advance

Pushed it several times best effort 260 km per tank then 60 km's on the reserve

Got 150 once. It took 3.2 to gallons to fill it so it must have been right on the edge

Many thanks ! I'm at 135 miles at the mo, so just a waiting game , i'm only riding around the town, till I hit reserve!! I dont like the idea of going on to Reserve!! But its handy to know, just what your limits are! Dont think I'll bother finding out how many I can do on reserve !!

My last tank got me 152 miles to reserve. I fill it up on the stand so get about 13 litres in. A lot depends on your right hand and your riding style.

I get about 125 to reserve the way I like to ride.

Is the SM tank smaller than on the America?

Been as far as 196 miles on a tank and have never used the reserve.

The tank sizes are the same for each model but not each year. The new (08) tanks are bigger by a few litres, hence your extra mileage.

I'm consistently hitting right around 125 when I need to switch to reserve.....
I ride mostly stop and go local with a chance here and there to open it up
